The eight cheetahs set to touch Indian ground on September 17 have started their journey from Namibia, confirmed the Indian High Commission in Namibia on Friday night.
Describing the moment as a one-of-a-kind intercontinental translocation, Prashant Agarwal, the Indian High Commissioner in Namibia, said that the cheetahs are the "goodwill ambassadors for India-Nambia relations" and “for the conservation of wildlife all over the world.”
The aircraft is flying overnight from the Hosea Kutako International Airport in Windhoek, so that the eight cheetahs--five females and three males--travel during the coolest hours of the day and arrive in Jaipur on Saturday morning. From Jaipur, the cheetahs will be transferred by helicopter to Kuno National Park in Madhya Pradesh, where they will be welcomed by a delegation led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Taking to his Twitter handle, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said cheetahs being brought from Namibia will be dropped at Kuno National Park in Madhya Pradesh around 10:45am on Saturday.
